South Columbia Elementary School Reviews

By Gigi Fogarty on Jan 14, 2012

My twin granddaughters are in second grade. I have been very involved with their classes - accompanied them on field trips, read to the class monthly, attend performances their class does, attend grandparents breakfast with the girls. Their teacher, Mrs. Thompson, and their first grade teacher, Mrs. Connelly are both excellent teachers. The school nurse has been very attentive and reliable as both girls have seasonal allergies and have needed medication and breathing treatments while at school. Both girls have earned "tiger bucks" (coupons given for good behavior) and they can turn these in to go to other classes to read to a class. The girls seem to love school and their teachers. I feel this speaks highly of the school, staff and curriculum offered.
